Are Video Game Adaptations Finally Fun?

Commentary is asking whether video game adaptations have turned a corner, after years of widely criticized film and TV versions. The discussion comes as several recent adaptations have drawn warmer responses than the genre's historically poor reputation would suggest. Writers and fans are debating whether studios have finally learned to respect source material, or whether a few successes are the exception rather than a lasting shift in how games are adapted for screen.
